2. Install 5/8”x1”diameter packing ringsover shaft (one
atatime)andcompress(poundwithhollowmetalbar).
NOTE: For skive-cut rings rotate each ring
approximately600againstthepreviousring.
REASSEMBLEVALVE
1. Reassemble thevalve in reverseorder aspreviously
described. Makesurethevanetouchesthebodybore
properly when actuator is in the “closed” position by
rotatingthebracketwith actuator attached“clockwise”
for air-to-open within the clearance of sockethead
screws(12)(“counterclockwise”forair-to-close). This
will preload the actuator springs slightly. Tighten
socketheadcapscrews(12)inthepreloadedposition.
NOTE:For“fail-close”action,the vane always closes
whentheshaftisturnedclockwiseandcounterclockwise
for“fail-open”action.
2. Realignpointer(38)ifnecessaryandtightenhexhead
capscrew (25).
3. Rotateshaftwithvanethrough about 700from closed
position. Thereshouldbenointerference.
IMPORTANT:
When replacing bracket(17), remove taper
pins(14)fromvane(2)andredrilltaper pin holes
inshaft(3)(newshaftisrequired)afterthevane
hasbeenfullyassembledwithactuatorinplace
andincorrectstrokeposition,andshaftispressed
against ball bearing(24) by cap screw(25).
Vane should be in closed position and kept in
centerofbody borewithpaper shims.
ACTUATOR MAINTENANCE
REPLACEDIAPHRAGM
1. Disconnectairlines.
2. Remove cap screws(45), nuts(46), and upper
diaphragmcase(41).
3. Hold lower portion of actuator stem(35) with 11/16”
wrench. Loosen and remove head bolt(49) and
diaphragmplate(42).
NOTE:Spring load will be relieved.
4. Replace diaphragm(43). Note location of bolt holes
andmakesuretherolled portion ofthediaphragmfits
into the lower diaphragm case(40). Do not disturb
springs(47).Replaceheadbolt(49)andtighten.
5. Reassemble upper diaphragm case(41) and check
operationwithairthrough1-9/16”stroke. Thereshould
be no more than 2% of signal span deadband (no
valveattached).
REVERSEACTION
1. Removeairlines.
2. Removeactuator,shaft(3)andvane(2).
3. Reinstallvane(2)inreversedirection,i.e.closingclockwise
insteadofcounterclockwiseor vice versa.
4. With vane in new location, it is recommended to replace
with new shaft(3) for better results. Slide actuator back
onto shaft(3). Retighten all cap screws(12)(25)(39) as
previouslydescribed. Bringactuator into“closed”position.
5. Redrillpinholes (14) of vaneandshaftinnewlocationwith
edgeofvanepushedfirmlyintohousing (use c-clamp).
DISASSEMBLEACTUATOR
1. Removeactuatorfromvalvebody.
2. Unscrew hex head cap screws(45) and remove upper
diaphragmcase(41).
3. Removeheadbolt(49)whileholdingactuatorstem(35) with
11/16”wrench.
NOTE: Springloadwillbereleased.
4. Pulldiaphragmplate(42)withdiaphragm(43)fromassembly.
5. Hold actuator stem(35) with wrench and unscrew ball
joint(36). ReplaceBelleville washers(51)ifrequired.
6. When replacingball joint(36) makesure distance3-7/32”
(82mm)fromcenterofballtolowerdiaphragmcase(40)is
maintained. Tightentravelstop(48)withjamnut(30).
REASSEMBLYOFACTUATOR
1. Attach stem(35) to diaphragm plate(42) using head bolt
(49)andBellevillewasher(51).
2. Placesprings(47)(use 4for4-15psibenchrangeand 6for
6-22 psi or 8-35 psi bench range) into lower diaphragm
case(40).
3. Place diaphragm plate(42) over springs(47). Rotate
diaphragm plate(42) back and forth until all springs are
centeredonguides (place4springssymmetrically).
4. Attach diaphragm(43) to diaphragm plate(42) with head
bolt(49).
NOTE:Holestoline up withlowerdiaphragm case(40).
5. Placeupperdiaphragmcase(41) on top of lower case (40)
andtightenhexheadcapscrews(45) and nuts(46) evenly.
Pushspring(47)down to engagescrews(45).
6. Applyapproximately10psiairpressuretoactuatorormove
stem(35)downwithoptional handwheel if provided.
7. Removeairpressureandturnactuatoroverforbracket(17)
topoint up. Inserttravel stop(48)with flatfacing towards
openinginbracket. Next,screwballjoint(36)intostem(35)
untilcenterofballjointextends3-7/32”fromlowersurfaceof
diaphragmcase(40). Lockwithjamnut(30).
NOTE:Balljointto be perpendiculartovalvestem axis.
8. Place pair of linkages(18) as shown; ensure that linkage
withslotfaces towards valve. Insertscrew(39) and partly
engagenut(29)(linkagetohangloose).
Note Orientation: Extended side oflinkage hubsto face
outwards.
9. Apply approximately 10 psi air pressure to actuator and
slideactuator,packing follower(6),packingflange(7) and
linkages(18 & 18a) onto shaft(3). Note vane location for
reassembly. Actuatorstem(35)should be pusheddown.
